<p>From: Erin Power &lt;<a href="mailto:xampprocky@icloud.com" title="mailto:xampprocky@icloud.com">xampprocky@icloud.com</a>&gt;<br>
Hello Rust contributor,</p>
<p>My name is Erin, I am contacting you on behalf of the Governance WG for the Rust project. We are contacting you because you're a member of a legacy GitHub Team on rust-lang, and not a current member of any other team. We're trying to transition managing access and permissions to rust-lang/team. Eventually we intend to remove the legacy teams which could result in you losing write permissions on some repos in the rust-lang org. If you believe you still you need access please get in contact with us, by either replying to this email, or on Zulip.</p>
<p>Zulip: <a href="#narrow/stream/223182-wg-governance" title="#narrow/stream/223182-wg-governance">https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/223182-wg-governance</a></p>
<p>Thank you for your time,</p>
<p>Erin (XAMPPRocky)</p>

<p><span class="user-mention" data-user-id="219696">@XAMPPRocky</span> , I don't need full write permissions to the repo, but does github allow fine-grained permissions that would still allow me to close issues on rust-lang/rust? I do use that ability with some regularity</p>

<p><span class="user-mention" data-user-id="256342">@bstrie</span> Yes! There is the triage working group which has triage access which allows you to close issues.</p>

<p>shall I try to convince them to let me join the team in order to receive that permission explicitly? I see they have a discord channel</p>

<p><span class="user-mention" data-user-id="256342">@bstrie</span> Yeah, you’ve kind of already have been doing that work. I would ping <span class="user-mention" data-user-id="120823">@DPC</span> (wg lead) and <span class="user-mention" data-user-id="116122">@simulacrum</span> (team lead) about your situation, I don’t think anyone will have a problem.</p>

<p>I've had a couple of comments on my GitHub Permission changes RFCs around also defining moderator permissions, etc. on it. Could someone give me a bit more context about what this might mean? <a href="https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2872#issuecomment-597956668" target="_blank" title="https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2872#issuecomment-597956668">https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2872#issuecomment-597956668</a></p>

<p>Are they talking about moderating comments on GitHub? Or in Discord/Zulip/etc?</p>

<p>I personally think it's out of the scope of this RFC, but want to make sure I understand the context</p>
